Do bear in mind that my Convert-PCX program only really converts black and white images though.[/quote]dilwyn wrote:I'll give both of these a shot - finally, it looks like there might be a use for PCX! I always remember that as being a format that Microsoft Paint offered (along with the equally seemingly-useless DIB) that offered no advantages over BMP. Good things may come to those who wait for 21 years...
That was... slightly worrying when I looked in the Quill file.
I was wrestling with CONVPCX for the last half-hour or so - and having concluded that it really doesn't like trying to be run from DOS1_ on QPC2, I made my first ever floppy disc image, manually transferred all the files over, made another disc for the output, loaded them both into QPC2, and... the same result.
20 EXEC FLP1_PCX_OBJ game "At line 20:1 bad parameter" - and for the record I tried EXEC_W as well, just in case.
Still, I'll try the BMP program next and see what happens...
EDIT: ...it's doing exactly the same thing.
EXEC DOS1_BMP104_OBJ - "invalid parameter". This is exactly what it says I should do in the accompanying Quill document with the exception of that using FLP1_ instead - but I suspect that if I did copy all the files over to a new disc image, it'd still do the same. I've checked how EXEC works as well, and I can't see any possible problem. And it isn't case sensitive.
EDIT AGAIN: ...and I was right. What trick am I missing here?
